Hi Chas.

I have been asking myself this question as I want to do the same. I have looked everywhere on the web for something similar to our own premium bonds... but nothing. If you should find out anything, please do share! Trinket.

Hello it's me again!

I found out that Ireland and Bangladesh run similar schemes but am unable to find out the fine details - e.g. whether or not they are open to non-residents, the maximum holding, when draws take place, that sort of thing. Trinket.

Hi Trinket

Thanks for the info, the irish version is called "prize bonds", you can find them at www.prizebonds.ie I have checked with the inland revenue and winnings are not subject to tax in the UK. I have sent off my first purchase today.

Good luck

Charlie

Oh, well done Chas. Thank you for the link. I have had a look and it seems really good. I will be sending off for some bonds myself too this week!

Fingers crossed for us eh?
